lots of hyacinth buds awaiting flowers

Blue Eyes hyacinths have been an early variety this year. The buds are large and look to be some of the earliest flowers.

I discovered a few problems when I checked the hyacinths in the cellar today (21-12-2022). The vase on the left was cracked and had leaked all the water out. I wonder if it froze but none of the other vases seemed to have froze. The hyacinth on the right did not grow roots (pictured below the amber vase below).

So I removed the hyacinth bulb from the amber vase and put it in the green vase. Hyacinth roots in water are very brittle so there was some breakage moving the bulb but I hope enough survived to allow the hyacinth to continue growing. The bulb on the right has a problem. Don't think I've ever seen one exactly like this.

Closer view of that bulb. I doubt it will flower properly. I'll have to dispose of it.

I try to remove the bulbets when I start the hyacinths but found these bulblets I missed when I took these vases out of the cellar. I'm going to try to remove the bulblets in a way that they can grow and develop - keeping some of the basal plate of the parent bulb. These bulblets are preventing the hyacinths from sitting in the vase properly.

I haven't checked each of these which variety they are but will try to tomorrow
